agree  K Donnelly: in this context, inclusions means non-clay objects mixed into the clay, ex: Museum of London website - ...hollowed neck and flat base,the fabric is coarse and buff, burnt black on outside and red inside, inclusions are Bryozoa fossil coral from Oxford

full of clay galls


Explanation:
"incluso d'argilla" = "clay gall, gall, crick" (L'inglese tecnico e scientifico, Zanichelli), and "clay gall" = "pellet of clay or mudstone, often ocherous, sometimes hollow, found esp. in false-bedded oolitic limestones such as forest marble"
